"Then, a couple of minutes later, we heard bangs on the wall and then like pops," said Wilmot's son Riyah.

"And then we hear, 'The suspect is down,'" said Hafida Wilmot.

According to the Broward Sheriff's Office, the robbery suspect ignored orders before he was shot. Three deputies were placed on administrative assignment following the shooting.

Deputies haven't identified the suspect yet, but said he was 23-years-old, from Miramar, and had a lengthy criminal record.

"I would figure that probably, you know, another store, but not Allstate," said Wilmot. "Allstate doesn't have no money."
